“The technical investigation didn’t tell us too much about what happened,” Bo Paulsson of the Malmö police told TT.

Although there were no witnesses to the incident itself, the case is being treated as a homicide or manslaughter. During the night, a 32-year-old man was reported to be heard arguing with the woman inside the apartment. He was released after questioning, but has not been ruled out as a suspect, according to Paulsson.

Aftonbladet newspaper reports that the woman and the 32-year-old man, who has lived in the apartment for several years according to neighbours, were newlyweds and that she had only been in Sweden for a few days.

This fall reminded me of something I once read in Newsweek magazine, perhaps in 2001 or 2002, in an article about the cruelty of Saddam Hussein's son Uday.

To make a long story short, Uday had an Iraqi army officer's wife abducted by his body guards, raped her in front of them and threw her off the balcony of the hotel room where he sexually abused her. Later her husband was murdered too, for "insulting" Uday when he cursed him for the rape and murder of his wife.
